advocacy

We are guided by our vision and mission to integrate people with disabilities in all aspects of community living, be it in education, employment, physical and built environment or socially. We focus our advocacy efforts in three main areas of equal access to education, equal opportunity in employment and equal participation in community, and we do so through the media, community outreach and public education.

We conduct disability awareness talks to raise awareness about the abilities and needs of persons with disabilities. Through these talks, we hope to encourage a better understanding of the different types of disabilities and to build more confidence in interacting with persons with disabilities. For more information on these talks, please contact the Advocacy and Public Education Dept at Advocacy@spd.org.sg.
